You'd be surprised. Outside of our big gaming bubble I've heard some people say some very strange things like Dark Souls being exclusive to Playstation, San Andreas was only on PS2, I met someone who was complaining at how Nintendo announced the Wii U and still hasn't released it.

People are very uninformed.


In my office a guy asked me, do you need constant internet connection to play PS4. I said PS4 can be played offline. He was surprised.


I think a thread needs to be made to collect all of these Gems.

I don't think people would care what box shows on the ad or screen. They'll just get it for whatever they own. Normal consumers are like babies and just enjoy what they have. Unlike us gaming gods, they actually have fun with what they buy. As for us, we force ourselves to try and have fun with our bias choices. Let's face it, this crap here isn't going to sell consoles.

What I meant to say was, if someone had a console already and sees an ad or commercial. Most likely they will see if it's on their console already . If it is, they wont buy another console just because the ad said its for that console, knowing the game is coming to their console too.

Also these multi-plats don't sell consoles like exclusives do. The only reason why these games being bundled with consoles are selling is because it's a free game. A free game regardless of crap value adds value to a purchse. Not a whole  lot of people are going to buy the bundle saying, "I bought Ass and got an Xbone for free." They bought  the bundle because of the two free games, it's $50 cheaper than PS4 and people thought the $350 price tag wasn't permanent. All those factors combined gave Xbone more sales. If there was no bundle, that console would still be sitting on the shelf.

You are right about dumb blonde consumers though. There are a lot of those.

Xbone... the new "N" word   Apparently I troll MS now | Evidence | Evidence

I hope not, would be a waste of money for sony



I got the same impression, they showed a PS4 controller in videos leading up to the reveal trailer and the PS4 box was first when they showed game box at the end.



Don't copy random editorials.

Maybe this is why sony are not worried about not having an exclusive?
Black Ops 3, Battlefront 3, Assassins creed marketing/bundles.

Whats next? FUT legends PS4 exclusive?

Keep seeing Sony having Blops marketing rights. Have I missed something? Or does this still stem from that store poster?

A bish-checked insider implied they lost it and said e3 would be intersting. Most of the things activision put out lists ps4 first.

The website has the ps4 version front and center as the default choice when you selected which beta you wanted and when you want to preorder. The ad that was on this website also listed ps4 first. Usually when a console is listed first it implies a partnership. Treyarch also tweeted a picture of a room and all their tvs had ps4s, Im not sure what that was about though. Then there is also that poster you mentioned. Sony also had the trialer up earleier than anyone else if I remember correctly. Signs point to sony having it, E3 will confirm what is happening. 

 

Makes sense for ms to pass on marketing cod, it is direct competition to halo 5.


Biggest clue was playstation branded trailer... which even MS didnt expect and shared it lol.

Destiny pushed more units for ps4 than Second Son, Order and Bloodborne? Watch Dogs did a hellova lot aswell.

But I get your point no ones going to buy a PS4 for a multiplat if they have an X1.

So less time wasting yearly game for MS E3? cool i guess.

And hope Blops 3 marketing deal rumor is real because that means even less time wasting yearly game for MS E3, these insiders better not be just trolling.



Seems like AC switches every year.

Black Flag was PS4
Unity was X1
Syndicate may be PS4



Platinums: Red Dead Redemption, Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet, Terminator Salvation, Uncharted 1, inFamous Second Son, Rocket League

Seems possible.
